   hit  and select in what instances you wish to enable this as well   
      
   The other two settings there Domain Guessing and Internet Keywords are   
   related as well, you may wish to enable those. Internet Keywords   
   actually takes control away from you tho, click on the  to understand how this works, its usually off tho (not   
   enabled). Domain guessing allows Netscape to 'guess' at domains for any   
   word you type, simply by adding www. and/or .com (these can also be   
   changed if you like), doesnt hurt to have this enabled.
